Abstract

Recent advances in computational science and technologies induce increasing size of the engineering problems, and impact the fields of computational fluids and structural dynamics as well as multi-physics problems, such as fluid-structure interactions. At the same time, structural components used in many engineering applications show geometrically nonlinear characteristics. Therefore, development of effective solution methodologies for large-size nonlinear structural problems is required seriously in the fields of the mechanical and aerospace engineering. Especially, general finite element methods require a large number of elements in order to predict precise stress or deformation, resulting in increased computational costs due to enlarged computational time and memory requirement. Therefore, careful selection of grid size and solution methodology becomes important.
